> Some people, when confronted with a problem, think "I know, I'll use regular expressions." Now they have two problems. Yeah sure. I think I heard that quote before... just about a million times? People expect regex to be an easy-to-use tool. Well it's not, and it's a foot gun if you don't take your time to learn it right. But no, people hack up some expressions, hit their feet and blame... the tool of course, not themselves. Just learn it right, it's a great tool if you know how to make it work for you :)
